Just when we were about to give up....

After m/c last January and not having the best timing, we were about to "take the summer off" and just enjoy it. I was getting so stressed, and I know DH was too. Who knew trying to get pregnant was going to be a huge ball of crazy wild emotions?
I had been feeling "odd" all week long and everytime I got up at work, my lower back hurt. Just an odd kind of cramping.
Last night decided to take a test after all of our cook out guests left, and even tough it wasn't my first pee of the day, it was positive. DH told me to wait until morning to take another so my urine was more concentrated. He didn't want to get his hopes up. Sure thing this morning, a good 2nd line.
The hard part now? I feel like I'm waiting on bad news. It's tough to be excited when you expect something to go wrong, but we're very happy.

Re: Just when we were about to give up....
I am sure if can be difficult after having a m/c but many people have one and then a perfect pregnancy after. So try and think positve!
Best of luck for a H and H!
First I wanted to say CONGRATULATIONS! I know exactly how you are feeling. I had a miscarriage last September and my body went through a lot after the miscarriage. I had to have 2 D&C's and couldn't wait to get pregnant again. Unfortunately we had to wait until February to try again.
I was struggling with trying again and frustrated as each month passed by wondering. But, this week I have been feeling dull cramping and pressure and my temps have been really high!
I FINALLY recieved my BFP on Friday and then DH gave me the same advice to test again the next morning and again we got a "good 2nd line."
I can completely relate but I am so early, only 3 1/2 weeks so I am waiting for something to go wrong. I want to enjoy this time, but at the same time don't want to get my hopes up!
I will pray hard for both of our babies to stick and be healthy!
Congratulations to you!
Congrats!
Just enjoy it! I've been there too. I had an m/c at the end of Jan and now I'm 13 weeks pregnant! You can't change a bad pregnancy no matter what you do so just enjoy the days you are pregnant!

Congratulations!!! I had a miscarriage last month, and then come to find out I'm pregnant again! We've been really nervous this time around as well, I know there's obviously nothing that can be done if something goes wrong, and enjoy each moment. But that's really hard to do when everything makes you wonder if it's going well or not!
Hopefully everything works out great for you and this one sticks
